Which is why I want to caution you and everyone now... You should only believe what you see and know to be true, and what you can personally verify as truth.... Take my word, or no one's word as absolute truth on anything ... ever.

I posted that after the "suicide" dilemma, and now it will be my standard disclaimer for this thread...

For the warmongers out there, Iran is indeed a lot further in their quest for the ability to make a nuclear bomb, but consider the implications of "preemptive strikes" on Iranian nuclear facilities...

The strikes on targets in Iran would blast a great deal of the radioactive materials out into the environment. That is a trap in itself by design... You can't do it without killing a lot of Iranians... It would be seen as an unjust act of mass murder throughout the entire Muslim world, it would do more to unite them than anything before it... It will bring devastating unconventional and conventional retaliations upon the region almost immediately.. It will likely ignite the long feared all out Arab/Israeli war (All Arab/Muslim nations allied against Israel in war) And most of all... It would provide the fulfillment of prophecies and provide the justification for a group to attack the west and particularly inside of the USA...

They are going to do everything they can to provoke this, and it is a trap by design... Don't take the bait.

If Israel is going to survive in anything close to its current form, then war is likely the only way...

The problem is, that if they confront Iran, and Iran retaliates it will likely unite all arab/muslim nations in war against Israel... So for Israel, war is going to be an all or nothing option ultimately, eventually the USA will be drawn into it and then, the prophecies are fulfilled...

snipThe Iranian military is prepared to counter any “thoughts of invasion” by its adversaries, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Friday. Iran would never “give in” to foreign attacks or any “act of aggression,” state TV quoted him as saying. During a visit to an army base in northeast Iran, Khamenei also said that Tehran’s readiness has limited its enemies’ “appetite for attacking Iran.”/snip

Limited, perhaps for the time being.

The problem is, how far will the provocations go before there is no stopping the "agression"??
